Everyone listen please, we have to first understand this concept to make easy as a iPhone Developer.

Once we understand all of them correctly then we can make anything easier.

I have searched for this Google but i can't get the right answer.

because everyone said different according to their understanding and this make me so confusing more.

Answer 1

To figure out in what order they are called you could use the debugger and a couple of breakpoints or simply put a NSLog(@"viewDidLoad was called"); call in each method.

Experienced programmers would use NSLog(@"%s", __PRETTY_FUNCTION__); because it automatically prints the method name and can be copied&pasted faster.

The View Controller Programming Guide can be handy too. It explains all that in detail.
